Buck-A-Book Sale on the Library Lawn

Buck- a- Book Sale on the Library Lawn

Friends of the San Rafael Library will hold their popular Buck- a- Book Sale from 9:00am to 1:00pm on the San Rafael Library Lawn.  This is a lovely spot for an old-fashioned sale, set beneath the shelter of an enormous oak tree.  Each book will be $1.00 or, in the case of children’s or very small books, 50 cents.  Many categories of books will be offered with especially robust collections of large paperbacks, or trade, fiction and recent hard cover fiction.  It’s a perfect time to select a nice stack of good reads for long afternoons at the beach, on the patio or deck.

Come early for the best selection.

Come late for half price starting at 12:15.

See you there!
